Private charter yacht off the Dubrovnik city walls at golden hour

Yacht Rental Dubrovnik

Private yacht rental from Gruž Harbour in Dubrovnik — sunset cruises, island days across the Elaphiti and custom voyages along the Adriatic, with a licensed skipper and fuel included in every charter.

About us

We craft private days at sea from Dubrovnik — a licensed skipper at the helm, insurance and safety equipment included, on eight yachts we own and maintain ourselves.

Years on this coast taught us a simple rule: the boat should be ready, the skipper should know the water, and the day should be yours. We run eight yachts for up to 12 guests — catamaran, flybridge cruisers, sport yachts and the 55-foot flagship — and the price you see is the price you pay.

Questions

Yacht rental in Dubrovnik, answered

How much does it cost to rent a yacht in Dubrovnik?

Charters run from €730 for four hours on Catamaran X to €2,550 for a full eight-hour day on the 55-foot Malavi flagship. Prices are per boat — not per person — and always include a licensed skipper, insurance and safety equipment. The full 2026 price list breaks down every option.

What's included in the price?

Every charter includes a licensed skipper, full insurance, safety equipment, a pre-departure briefing and a Bluetooth sound system — with no platform markup or hidden fees. Not included: national-park entry fees (Mljet, Lokrum reserve fee), restaurant meals and premium drinks. See what every charter includes for the detail.

Do I need a boat licence?

No. Every charter comes with a licensed local skipper, so you need no licence, no experience and no paperwork. You choose the route and the pace; the skipper handles the boat, the moorings and the weather calls. If you would rather helm yourself, we do not offer bareboat — skippered only.

When is the best time to book a charter?

June to September brings the warmest sea — typically 22–26 °C — and the most reliable sunshine. May and October are quieter on the water, with better boat availability. Our season runs April to October; our month-by-month guide covers the trade-offs.

Where do charters depart from?

All departures are from Gruž Harbour, Obala Stjepana Radića 25, 20000 Dubrovnik — about 10 minutes by taxi from the Old Town. Your skipper meets you on the quay 15 minutes before departure. Directions, bus lines and a map are in the section below.

What happens if the weather turns?

If the forecast makes your day unsafe or unpleasant, we contact you first and offer a free rebooking or a full refund — your choice. You can also cancel free of charge up to 24 hours before departure, with a 100% deposit refund guarantee. The cancellation policy spells it all out.

How many people fit on board?

Up to 12 guests on Catamaran X, the Fairline Phantom 40, Bond 007 and the Malavi 55 flagship; 7–10 on the rest of the fleet. For groups larger than 12 we can run two boats side by side — send an inquiry and Sarah will put the day together.

Can we swim and snorkel during the charter?

Yes — swim stops are the heart of any half-day or longer charter. Snorkelling gear and a paddleboard are on board at no extra cost, and your skipper picks the calmest coves for the day's wind. Our guide to secret swim spots and coves shows what to expect.
